Edinburgh accommodation

I accepted my offer about four ish days ago and when I try and apply for accommodation it won’t let me, what should I do? Is this happening to other people?

yes their system is down and they are trying to fix - I was trying for a few days then emailed them, had a couple of replies and latest was they are hoping for it to be fixed this week and don't worry as everyone is in the same boat... I was a bit stressed as accepted on to year 2 and as the error is I am not eligible for accommodation it threw me in to a panic. I am eligible as am first year at Edinburgh...

I haven’t yet, I’m not sure if we have to wait to get our results if we don’t have unconditional places

Yes I think you can out in your choices but don’t get allocated until your offer becomes unconditional
